eg: Ferland. Isn't a guy with the tools to be a 2nd line power forward that can fight more valuable than a bottom 6 forward (and IMO 3) forward?
Corban's quite the opposite of a grinder. He rarely goes out of his way to be physical. He's an offensive player first and foremost.

Knight had one of the best seasons out of any Flames rookie in the last 10 years. Ferland is awesome and if he ever recovers fully from his injury, he's going to be a hell of a player. But right now, there's no question in my mind that Knight has proven he's the best prospect left on the board.

Obviously, that's just my opinion and I'm biased, but Ferland hasn't proved half of what Corban has. A full, healthy could change that for Ferland though. I still have high hopes for that kid.
